Good Man Operation Guide

Chapter 173.2: Apocalypse: Zombie Era (End)

Tan Xi had just made a big profit from Bai Yu and was feeling good about it when the young man who had been praised earlier approached. She couldn’t help but smile. “Hey handsome, what’s up?”

“Hmm.”

Lin Shiheng smiled softly at her, melting her heart with his smile, and then used an innocent and ignorant voice to say, “Pretty Sister, is that guy named Ji Hang one of your people? He just went to bother my Sister, saying he wants to be with her and complaining about his financial backer not treating him well anymore. He’s annoying. Can you make him leave?”

The tone and demeanor were that of a pure and innocent lotus flower.

Tan Xi, who had been admiring Lin Shiheng’s face, suddenly realized what he had said. Her expression immediately became colorful, full of anger and indignation.

Even though she wanted to break up with Ji Hang, they hadn’t officially separated yet. How dare Ji Hang, who ate her food and lived off her, now try to cheat on her.

Beside her, Bai Yu, who overheard the conversation, also had an unpleasant expression. She had treated Ji Hang as a treasure before, but this man actually wanted someone else to support him, and... a financial backer!

In addition, after being rescued by her uncle, she had started training hard and had been in and out of the base. She was no longer the naive young miss she used to be.

“Trash!! Piece of shit!!’

“What the hell is this asshole thinking?!”

Both of them couldn’t help but curse out loud, then looked at each other in surprise.

Tan Xi guessed what was going on and spoke up first, “I’m Ji Hang’s financial backer. Whatever he did before, he relied on me for support. He’s a piece of shit. How dare he badmouth me outside.”

Bai Yu’s face turned ugly. “I’m his ex-girlfriend. When we first entered the base, we went shopping for clothes, and he...”

As the two women talked and vented their anger, their frustrations only grew.

Tan Xi said, “If I had known he was such a garbage man, I wouldn’t have supported him!"

Bai Yu added, “When we broke up, I should have asked my Uncle to kick him out of the base!”

As they continued to get angrier, they agreed on the spot and followed Lin Shiheng to the scene.

As they approached, they happened to hear Ji Hang speaking in a pitiful tone, saying, “When I found out I had cancer, I knew that if I told you, you wouldn’t give up on me. Maybe you would even use your entire fortune to cure me. In order for you to live a good life on your own, I came up with that plan, making you think I cheated and betrayed you so you wouldn’t miss me anymore.”

“Bai Yu was just my junior at school. I asked her for a favor back then. After the apocalypse, she had been with me all along, even confessing her feelings and saying that she doesn’t mind you being in my heart...”

“The leader of the convoy I’m with is an ugly woman. She likes me, but I don’t like her, so she has been clinging to me. I don’t have any special abilities, Jiaqi. I don’t have much time left, and I really don’t want to be humiliated before I die. I’m not asking for your forgiveness, I just want to stay by your side and see you a bit more...”

As Ji Hang spoke passionately, he noticed Ji Jiaqi’s strange gaze. It didn’t seem like she was looking at him but rather at something behind him.

Puzzled, he felt a tap on his shoulder. When he turned his head, he saw a handsome young face.

“Hey, take a look at this.”

“This person must be an idiot. It’s just a shapeshifting mutant creature, and it’s already registered in the base, right?’

“Yeah, it was registered 2 months ago. I heard that it’s owned by someone surnamed Ji. It’s always well-behaved and never causes trouble.”

“It didn’t even provoke that person. It was just sitting there. It was that person who got scared like a scaredy-cat. Hey, did he leave the base? Wasn’t it said that there’s a zombie wave passing by these days, and try to avoid leaving the base?”

“He’s just a fool.”

No one cared about Ji Hang’s disappearance, not even Tan Xi bothered to look for him. After all, Ji Hang had done enough work for her, and she had settled the score. Whatever he did didn’t matter to her.

It was Cheng Yue who noticed something. In the third year of the apocalypse, during a supply clearing mission, she saw the wristwatch that Ji Hang had always worn. Just like in her previous life when she killed him, his body had been completely devoured by zombies, leaving only a wristwatch and a pile of bones.

In the tenth year of the apocalypse, scientists finally developed a vaccine. Although it couldn’t reverse the zombification of infected humans, if injected within an hour after being scratched or bitten, it could prevent infection and generate antibodies in the body thereafter.

People didn’t foolishly wait to be bitten by zombies. Vaccine centers were set up in major bases. The plan was to let the zombies scratch people and then administer the vaccine on the spot.

With the availability of the vaccine, the number of zombies decreased instead of increasing. Major bases joined forces, first eliminating higher-level zombies one by one, and then dealing with regular zombies. In just six months, the zombies were completely eradicated.

In the zombie-clearing plan, the team led by Ji Jiaqi made significant contributions. For a period of time, she, Gu Chengbei, Cheng Yue, and a shapeshifting cat-like mutant creature that grew bigger and fatter became the protectors of humanity in the hearts of the people in China.

After the zombies were declared completely eliminated, the government was established, and Lin Shiheng, as a representative of the mutant creatures, was elevated to the status of a deity. A tall statue of him was erected in the new government, visible to everyone who passed by.

No government dislikes mutant creatures. Although they are lazy and eat a lot, they don’t have any malicious intentions. Despite their immense power, they refrain from using it unless necessary and peacefully serve as mascots and protectors of humanity.

The large and gluttonous Ragdoll cat had been worshipped for 50 years. In the fifty-first year, it left behind a letter and disappeared from this world.

At that time, Ji Jiaqi had become a grandmother. Due to her strong physique as a superhuman, she had no issues with mobility. Together with Gu Chengbei, they opened the letter, curious about what Heng Heng had written to them.

However, when they unfolded it, both of them had a mixed expression of laughter and tears on their faces.

On the letterhead, there was a neat and beautiful plum blossom-shaped mark, left by the red clay that the Ragdoll cat had touched. It was elegant and orderly, but they couldn’t understand it

In the white space, Lin Shiheng raised an eyebrow and clicked “confirm.”

[The portal to the real world will open. Host please fasten your seatbelt and retract the cover. 3-2-F]

In the pure white hospital room, Lin Shiheng opened his eyes.

There was a middle-aged woman lying restlessly by his bedside. Having just woken up, Lin Shiheng still couldn’t fully control his body, but he slowly and persistently placed his hand on the woman’s hair, gently caressing it.

“Mom, I’m back.”
